"Hey, old man, I have a deal to offer, I'm sure you'll be interested......"

Richard contacted Adelman directly.

"Lee, buy and sell? Do you want to trade with our warriors? God, this is simply great, tell me, who do you want to sell? We'll definitely give you the chips you need, and if not, find a few more teams to trade! Adelman said with a smile.

"Pragus ......"

When Adelman heard the name, he was immediately quite puzzled, didn't Richard say that this player was embarrassed and useful?!

"Old man, Pragues is really embarrassing, but you can trade it for something you need, like ......"

"Like going to Larry Brown for a trade, I think he's going to be interested!"

Richard said with a smile.

Adelman, on the other end of the phone, rolled his eyes, this is already lice on the bald head, and it is obvious that Richard wants to pit Larry Brown.

But he didn't have a good chance of coming forward, and if he did, Larry Brown wouldn't have taken the bait.

"Li, it's not that easy......"

"Don't worry, old man, Praggs only need one of your second-round picks for next season, I guess that's pretty cheap......"

"Larry Brown, anyway, you can do it yourself, this matter is also good for you, it means that you warriors have chosen the cheap ...... for nothing"

Praggs weren't very valuable, and Richard wasn't ready to talk to the Adelman lions.

In fact, now that the Trail Blazers are already in a state of personnel saturation, Richard is too lazy to trade Pragues for players, and there is no place to put people when they come......

In exchange for a second-round pick, Richard is satisfied.

Adelman pondered for a moment, "Okay, Lee, I'll try my best......"

"How do you feel that I have become your accomplice, in fact, I have a good relationship with Larry Brown, if he understands this matter, I guess he will hate me to death!"

Richard laughed, what is the relationship between Adelman and Larry Brown, Richard doesn't know, but this kind of obviously cheap thing, Adelman will definitely not miss it.

It's a big deal, when the time comes, push this thing on Richard, and Larry Brown has nowhere to get angry if he wants to.

Besides, the matter of player trading depends on their eyes, and when Larry Brown finds out that Prague is embarrassed, there is no place to reason.

……

Early the next morning, the Trail Blazers and the Golden State Warriors made a small deal.

The Trail Blazers sent Pragues, and the Warriors sent their second-round pick for next season.

Although Braggs was selected by Richard with the last pick in the original draft, its value is a second-round pick.

But at present, Praggs already has signs of playing, especially in the last ten games, he has averaged about 11 points per game, and the three-point shooting rate is 38%, which seems to be a buried potential star!

What everyone didn't expect was that such a new star, Richard actually only needed a second-round pick for the Warriors!

It's a giveaway!

No one knows exactly what kind of PY deal was made between these two teams......

……

After arriving at the Warriors, Praggs was directly entrusted with the responsibility by Adelman, and he started directly in the first game, and his teammates helped defend and feed the ball......

In the first game, he got 21 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists!

The day after the match, Adelman made a direct call to Larry Brown seeking to trade Pragues.

Larry Brown was also dumbfounded, he was a little confused......

Warriors, this is sending warmth?!

If the Warriors Lions were to open their mouths, then Larry Brown might still suspect that Richard and the Warriors were joining forces to pit themselves.

But now the Warriors didn't open their mouths, Adelman and Larry Brown chatted for half an hour, and in the end Adelman just asked for a top-10 protected first-round pick.

It's basically the same as sending warmth, where a top-10 protected first-round pick in exchange for a player like Prague doesn't look like a loss-making deal.

Under normal circumstances, in fact, the Nets' first-round pick was given to the Timberwolves in a Marbury trade, and now because Barry Jr. happens to match Marbury's value, the Nets have not given the first-round pick......

After thinking about it, Larry Brown felt that there was really no possibility of being cheated here, so he agreed without saying a word.

By the way, if this Pragues can play well, he can also stimulate Richard......

The player who was sold by Richard became a star under his own hands!

……

At the end of March, a series of transactions broke out, which was dizzying.

Originally, many fans thought that the Trail Blazers would break out some heavyweight trade, but the Trail Blazers did not move and just sold a Prague game.

As a result, Prague ended up in the hands of Richard's enemy, Larry Brown......

……

Under normal circumstances, the schedule is the playoffs in mid-April.

However, this year is special, the start date of the playoffs is in early May, so there is still a month to go before the playoffs.

By the end of the March schedule, the Trail Blazers had played a full 30 games and continued to have a winning streak.

And Kobe Bryant also won the Player of the Month award in March.

The current Trail Blazers can almost be said to be a perfect team, undefeated throughout the season, and if they can continue to maintain it, it will definitely be the greatest miracle in the entire NBA history!

……

On April 7, the Trail Blazers host the Dallas Mavericks.

The Mavericks arrived in Portland a day early, and newcomer to the team, Larry Hughes, showed up in Richard's office with his head coach, Nelson Sr.

"Congratulations, Coach, you have won the season!" Larry Hughes, as a young West Lafayette player, was full of smiles when he saw Richard.

He's okay with the Mavericks right now, playing the main point guard position, and is currently averaging about 13 points per game.

With Michael Finley and Nash, they form a backcourt trident combination with quite strong offensive firepower.

Of course, their trident belongs to the more dick silk version of the trident......

Dung fork version of the Trident.

"Mr. Nelson, it's a pleasure to meet you!" Richard stood up and said to old Nelson with a smile.

Nelson Sr. is a head coach that Richard reveres, even more than Popovich.

This is a true master tactician!

Some of the ideas he put forward have guided the development of basketball in later generations, and it is not too much to say that he is the founder of basketball style in later generations.

Old Nelson smiled bitterly, don't look at Richard being so polite to himself now, when the game starts, maybe Richard will do something to make the Mavericks ugly......

For example, breaking the record for points difference in the game against the Bucks......
